a KICK FROM NEW YORK.

Complaints snbmittsd to the Interstate
Commission
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-The interstate
commerce commission has received from
the board Of trade and transportation Of
New York city complaints against the
trunk lines having eastern terniini at
New York-the New York Central, the
New York, Lake Erie & Western, the
Delaware, lackawanna g. Western, the
Pennsylvania and the Baltimore e. Ohio
roads alleging unjust discrimination by
charging more for the same class Of
goods in less than carload lots than by
the carload. Az q result of this discrim-
ination small shippers are made to pay
rom 10 to 80 per cent. more for the same
classes of goods than large shippers. The
compliments allege that the question as
1t affects the eastern trunk lines embodies
important points not heretofore pre-
scented to the commission by the COM
plant of the associated grocers of st.
Louis.
The west bound classification Of the
eastern trunk lines prior of enactment
of the interstate law made but few and
unimportaat carload d~ifferentials about
107 but the new classification adds about
!, 1000 articles to this number, some Of
which are very important and the differ
ences in rates made between small and
larges quantities are excessive. This
was tho more unnecessary and unreason-
able on the part Of the eastern trunk
lines, because more than half of their
west bound cars goes empty and the vol
ume OF miscellaneous freight transported
by them being large it enables them to
q very grest extent II they SO desire to fill
theh cars with full loads of assorted
freight. This principle involved, com
plainant says, IL tho same as in the
Providence coal cases which have been
brought to the attention Of the. commits.
sion and which II carried 60 its logical
cpd, would concentrate the business of
tho roads in tho hands of but one shipper
OK q few shippers in every place. The
bearing will be granted probably early in
September.

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 2.-Assistant
United States Appraiser Daniel S. Yost,
formerly Leland Stanford's private .secre-
tary, was the first witness before tho
Pacific railroad commission. A lengthy
examination developed nothing of i'm
p%ortance. He admitted attending ses-
sions of the legislature but did not re.
member paying out money to influence
votes.
Frank S. Duty, secretary of the West
ern Development and Pacific Improve
ment company WAS the next witness.
He declined to produce the books of his
company showing the cost Of construc-
tfon OF the Central Pacific and the roads
constructed by the Western Development
company, acting. as he said, under advice
OF counsel. The commission could get
no information from him, the invariable
excuse being that son advice of counsel
he declined, etc."
Commissioner Pattison asked witness
II the books of his company showed the
cost of constructing the Central Pacific
from Delta to the boundary. The witness
answered in the affirmative but was ignor-
ant OF the amount. Mr.. Duty was asked
directly II he refused to produce the books
OF the Development company when Mr..
Bergin arose and said that it was adyisa.
bic that the books be withheld. Chair
man Pattison wished to know II Mr.. Ber-
gin appeared as counsel for the railroad
company, but could get no satisfactory
reply and the session was closed.
Senator Stanford Will be examined.
Governor Pattison In order to determine
the extent of the commissions powers
will appeal to the United States courts
for a decision.

ward SURPRISING EIe organization as FAT
MS the government is able to accomplish
its suppression, and it is definitely known
that the Irish magistrates and police will
be ordered to terminate the existence of
The League during the last week of the
parliamentary session. The government
will find, however, that ordering the sup
preston of The League and suppressing
that body are quite different matters.
Even now public meetings o. The League
are rare, but private meetings are of
nightly occurrence in. various parts of
Ireland and the police are one the wiser.
So far as show is concerned, The League
has practically suppressed itself. but so
far as carrying out the. objects OF its exist
ence is concerned it was never more alive
than now. A few arrests may be made
under the decree Of suppressions, but it
is doubtful if the police will be able to
find anything upon which to base war
rants for wholesale arrests of officers and
members OF The League and it is likely
thatthe gofernmant'sc crusade against The
| League win be a ~farcical movement.

An Indian saiden's l%nfatuation Leads
to a Series of Crimes.
DULUTH, Mimi, Aug. 2-AdYices from
Aiken give further particulars Of the
murder at Kimberly. A half-breed
named Sankoda shot and Instantly killed
an Indian known as Joe A1nes, and at
tempted to shoot another Indian named
Miscangano. After the shooting San
koda fed to Sandy Lake, leaving his
sqraw and papooss in a wigwam near the
scene of the tragedy. Later, Miscaneona,
who is a cousin to the murdered Indian,
went to Sankoda's wigwam and shoe his
~iSankoda's1 papoose, a male child 9 years
old, and then left In pursuit of Sankoda
for the purpose Of killing him also.
The trouble originated last Sunday evs-
ming. A small party Of white men WIS.,
tied the Indian ~camp-then near Aiken.
The Indians had been drinking freely and
were very hilarious. Nauwanaha, a ycry
pretty Indian maiden, became greatly en-
amoredof OF tho visitors and declared
her intention of marrying him then and
there. Sankada, her uncle, favored the
marriage, and called a senior member Of
the tribe to perform the ceremony. This
greatly enraged Nauwanaha,s Indian,
lover, Joe, who flew at Sankada with a
knife and a general melee ensued. Part
OF the Indians were fighting among them
selves, and the other portion CHASED the
whites into town with drawn knives. 1t
is claimed that Sankada received a wound
from Jos's knife, and that thew subse-
quently quarreled more or less during
the week, and 1t finally ended in the
tragedy.
Serious quarrels have taken placa
among the Indians regarding THAR nj.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2.-The rumor that
Bishop Loughlin, of Brooklyn, has been
summoned to Rome to answer for DISC
bedience to the mandate of the Vatican
requiring him to restore the Rev. J.. J.
Crimmins to the pastorate of the Church
of the immaculate Conception is denied.
The Rev. DIR. X. L. Burtsen, who was
Father Crimmins' counsel in the suspeu-
sion proceedings, will not talk with re-
porters, having been miseuoted, he
claims, in regard to some of his lutheran.
-ces concerning DIR. McGlynn, whose close
friend DR.. Burstell is. But a friend of
his told a reporter that there was no truth
whatever in the story; that the trouble
between Father Crimmins and the Bishop
had been ended, and that Father Grim,
minis had been restored to his priestly
functions II was now an assistant
priest at ST. Teresa's church, CIasson
avenue, Brooklyn. The truth seems to
be that Bishop Loughlin, although the
time has not yet arrived when he should
make his decenniAl visit to Rome, has
decided to make 1t now because he Is get
ting old and semewhat.iniirm and it is
the Pope's jubilee yeas. He will probably
ask for the appointment Of eoadjutor
while he is at Rome. 1t is charged by
friends Of the bishop that the story of his
summons to Rome to be disciplined was
started by some sympathisers with DR..
McCslynn, who are anxious to have 1t be.
lieyed thet any bishop who does o side
with him is in disgrace. Bishop Lough-
lin. as is we'll known, believes and says
that Archbishop Corrigan was altogether
too tender with DR.. McGlynn and that II
the affair had happened in his diocese
DR.. McGlynn and every priest who en
couraged him would have been dealt with
summarily. Under Bishop Loughlin'e
sway the diocese of Brooklyn has grown
wonderfully and he expects that the
showing of the condition which he will
make will excite not only the hearty
commentator but the astonishment Of
the Vatican.
